And, yesterday Billy Joe Shaver died. I post these songs in rememberance of him. The first song will be used as background music for the photo PowerPoint show that will be played someday at my funeral.

"Monsoon"


I'm staring at a broken door
There's nothing left here anymore
My room is cold
It's making me insane

I've been waiting here so long
But now the moment seems to've come,
I see the dark clouds coming up again.

Running through the monsoon
Beyond the world,
To the end of time,
Where the rain won't hurt
Fighting the storm,
Into the blue,
And when I lose myself I think of you,
Together we'll be running somewhere new
Through the monsoon.
Just me and you

A half moon's fading from my sight
I see your vision in its light
But now it's gone and left me so alone
I know I have to find you now
Can hear your name, I don't know how
Why can't we make this darkness feel like home?

Running through the monsoon
Beyond the world
To the end of time
Where the rain won't hurt
Fighting the storm
Into the blue
And when I lose myself I think of you
Together we'll be running somewhere new
And nothing can hold me back from you
Through the monsoon

Hey! Hey!

I'm fighting all its power
Coming in my way
Let it take me straight to you
I'll be running night and day
I'll be with you soon
Just me and you
We'll be there soon
So soon

Running through the monsoon
Beyond the world
To the end of time
Where the rain won't hurt
Fighting the storm
Into the blue
And when I lose myself I think of you
Together we'll be running somewhere new
And nothing can hold me back from you
Through the monsoon

Through the monsoon
Just me and you
Through the monsoon
Just me and you

Thanks ElkHound, sad but nice lyrics. Music is universal in meaning if not language.

New Harvard study says music is universal language ...

Comprehensive study explains that it is universal and that some songs sound ‘right’ in different social contexts, all over the world

Bulletproof

Nobody ever makes it last anymore
There I was looking for the easy way out
These days love is a revolving door
Cast aside at the first sign of doubt
Not every thought it could happen to us
I thought we had something to trust
Knowing love like we had nothing to lose
I thought you and me were supposed to be bulletproof
You were my anchor and I was your rod
I needed answers and you held the key
Made you listen and you made me talk
You were the only one that mattered to me
Not every thought it could happen to us
I thought we had something to trust
Knowing love like we had nothing to lose
I thought you and me were supposed to be bulletproof
You were the best thing that I ever found
There I said we made a pretty good team
I set 'em up and then you knock 'em down
One day it all just came [unknown]
Not every thought it could happen to us
I thought we had something to trust
Knowing love like we had nothing to lose
I thought you and me were supposed to be bulletproof
Yeah you and me were supposed to be
I though you and me were supposed to be bulletproof

I have to agree that we don't always have to undrstand the lyrics to like the voice and music to a song.
I have always liked this song and still don't know what it is saying. But I like her voice and the music .
Maybe I should look it up but then i may not like it as much if the lyrics stink,lol.
